Thanksgiving is a time of merriment, a time to get together and spend time with your loved ones. Unfortunately, the holiday is also associated with turkeys on the dinner menu, and thus, nearly 50 million turkeys are killed each year for the day. Turkeys are intelligent creatures that, if given the chance, will show you their smarts. They also form strong family and friendship bonds with their flock and can travel in flocks of 200 or more. Who knows? They might even try and change the Thanksgiving menu as we know it by traveling back in time to the first Thanksgiving dinner between the Pilgrims and the Wampanoag Indians in 1621, like in the movie, “Free Birds.” Try a vegan Thanksgiving dinner this holiday and let a family of turkeys enjoy their time together, off the menu.

This stacked vegan entrée is not only beautiful to look at, but nutrient-rich and satisfying. It’s the perfect fusion of summer flavors and colors, to be enjoyed outdoors surrounded by friends and family.
